About the Dress

Beautiful Rosa Clara Evan dress. Search for catalogue photos online.

I fell in love with the beautiful vine patterned fabric and shape of this dress. A-line dress style with long train and side split on front; petticoats and lining are towards the back of this dress giving lovely shape and weight whilst being really wearable. Very flattering v-neck front and back with mesh panels and padded cup on inside.

Washed at home following instructions from bridal shop and seamstress (not dry cleaned).

Really robust fabric but some very small signs of wear on the hem where it touched the floor and inner lining at the back. A few light marks and a couple of pulls on hem but none are noticeable when worn and can only be seen under very very close inspection of the hem, so not noticeable when worn.
Needs hook and eye repair as pulled off.

True to size. I wear UK 14 top/16 bottom. Main measurement will be waist and chest due to a-line dress style.

Hoping to sell so that it gets another outing and brings another bride as much joy to wear!

Alterations

Minimal alterations. Dress comes with 30x30cm fabric swatch and spare buttons in case needed (e.g. for new straps)

Straps shortened and breast cups pinned to my size.
Tack stitch on front side slit, as shown in photos.
Clear button on back and string added (located behind knee) so detain can be bussled and worn more comfortably. Also shown in photos.
